DREAM 87, SKY 81

ATLANTA (AP) - Angel McCoughtry had 21 points, Layshia Clarendon scored 12 of her 15 in the second half and added a career-high eight rebounds as Atlanta rallied to beat Chicago.

The Dream (2-1) overcame a 10-point deficit to win. Carla Cortijo added 12 points and five assists, Sancho Lyttle scored 10 points, and Elizabeth Williams had nine and a career best-tying five blocked shots.

A putback by Erika de Souza gave Chicago (1-2) a 52-43 lead with 7:16 left in the third quarter, but the Sky made just 3 of 14 field-goal attempts and committed five turnovers as Atlanta closed the quarter on a 21-6 run and never again trailed.
